Merge-workspace review: round 1 (@518beda) claude agy grok PASS, codex
NOT PASS (finalize wait measured on the wall clock); fixed in 4c86107.
Round 2 delta (@4c86107) claude agy grok PASS; codex (24b21b9c, after
817d1650 closed deadline_timeout with no report) found R1 closed and no
new defect, but withheld PASS only because its sandbox could not bind
the suite's loopback broker. The same two-file suite run here at
4c86107: 278 passed. Full suite at 518beda on macOS / Python 3.9:
1711 passed / 1 failed / 38 skipped; the failure
(test_issue45_restore, herdr 0.9.3 cwd restore) also fails on main.

R1: tomllib accepting a file is not herdr accepting it (a schema error makes
herdr drop the whole file, restore included). The shim passes REAL_HERDR and
the written file must pass `herdr config check` ("parse error"/"using defaults"
reject; unknown keys and sound-file notices do not), else the key-only file is
written and checked. A non-table `session` and a source that is not UTF-8 reach
that fallback instead of raising.
R2: the line edit is replaced by parse -> set -> serialize; the result must
parse back to the source plus the key, so dotted keys and inline tables keep
the user's other settings.
R3: the output is never the source (aliases included) nor a file not generated
for the same source; then a per-source name beside it.

Issue #45 A+B: MAM's isolated herdr servers start with restore-on-restart off,
and resume closes the session's own restored empty shell. Not reviewed yet.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The headless bootstrap regenerates the server config on every start and hands
it to the server as HERDR_CONFIG_PATH. Without a file the server still starts,
with a warning. mam_sandbox unsets HERDR_CONFIG_PATH/XDG_CONFIG_HOME so the
file lands in the sandbox HOME.

A non-numeric MAM_READY_EMPTY_GIVEUP, SKS_EMPTY_GIVEUP, SKS_IDLE_RETRIES,
SKS_IDLE_RETRY_BACKOFF_S, MAM_LOCK_STEAL_RETRIES, MAM_DIFF_MAX_BYTES,
MAM_DIFF_MAX_LINES or RECONCILE_POLL_INTERVAL was a `[` error or a sleep
error at the point of use (PR #43 review claude R3). They now go through
mam_int_knob: decimal, a warning and the default for a bad value. Minimums
are in test_issue26_ints.py INT_KNOBS: 1 for the give-up counts (0 acts as
1), the diff caps (0 truncates every diff) and the poll interval (0 is a
busy loop); 0 for the retry counts (one attempt) and the retry backoff.
SKS_QUIESCENT_INTERVAL stays raw: its default is 0.5 s and sleep's
fraction is its meaning; NOT_ARITHMETIC says so.
loop_lock.sh and diff_collect.sh also run without lib.sh (the Python runner
and the tests source them alone), so mam_int / mam_int_knob move verbatim
to lib_int.sh, which lib.sh sources and those two source when the function
is missing. remove.sh's no-manifest fallback list names the new file
(install copies every file under .agents/skills). test_issue21_loop_b l15,
which builds a control root holding only diff_collect.sh, copies it too.
Tests: the table guard now reads every shell file; scripts sourced alone
read their knobs as decimal; _pane_quiescent with SKS_EMPTY_GIVEUP=abc
gives up with a warning and no `[` error (14 of the new cases fail at
0051fd6).

Merge-workspace review of PR #43 (codex R1-R4, claude R1/R2).
- R1: envfile.parse raises EnvFileError when the file exists but cannot be
read or decoded as a whole; `--shell` prints the cause and exits 1, so the
wrapper stops (rc 1, as before #26) instead of running on defaults, and
mqtt_common's entry points stop on the same error. A bad single line is
still a warning. The wrapper's message no longer claims a read failure
when the cause is elsewhere ("cannot load ... see the line above").
- R2: lib.sh mam_int spells out the ASCII blanks and digits instead of
[[:space:]]/[0-9], which follow the locale: U+2003 30 U+2003 was 30 in the
wrapper and invalid in the runner under en_US.UTF-8. The test oracle
_expected uses the same ASCII rule.
- R3: an integer flag given explicitly with an empty value is refused like
any other invalid value; only an absent flag keeps its default.
- R4: a line holding a NUL byte is skipped with a warning by both loaders;
before, the wrapper read "leftright" and the Python loader died.
- .mam.env.example states the format: no expansion, `export` and bash's own
variables skipped, a trailing `# ...` is part of the value, the environment
wins, an unreadable file is an error.
Tests: unreadable (0000) and invalid-UTF-8 files stop the wrapper and the
Python loader; a NUL line is skipped by both; Unicode blanks/digits are
invalid for mam_int, _positive_int, the wrapper and the runner under C and
en_US.UTF-8; explicit empty values for the five integer flags are refused.
All of them fail on b58edac.

R1 (P1): a quoted export still ran code when the key was a bash special
variable (RANDOM=a[$(cmd)] is evaluated arithmetically on assignment).
envfile.RESERVED (bash's own variables, plus BASH_/COMP_/READLINE_
prefixes) is skipped with a line-numbered warning by both loaders; a test
keeps it covering every variable a clean bash defines. The wrapper also
hands SCRIPT_DIR/REPO_ROOT/TARGET_ENV to the parser as environment, so the
file cannot replace the variables it has already set.
R2 (P2): SKS_QUIESCENT_TRIES reached `for ((i < tries))` through a function
argument; it is normalised at the call site (minimum 0). B5 now requires
every integer-looking env default in the shell code to be normalised or
listed in NOT_ARITHMETIC with where it goes, and exercises _pane_quiescent.
R3 (P2): _positive_int strips leading zeros and rejects more than nine
significant digits before int(), like mam_int; 5000-digit inputs no longer
raise in the runner.

bash read MAM_JOB_TIMEOUT_S=0700 as octal 448 (and failed on 0900) while
the loop runner read 700. One rule now, with a per-knob minimum:
lib.sh mam_int / mam_int_knob and runner._positive_int (blanks allowed,
digits only, decimal, min <= n <= 999999999).
- minimum 1: MAM_JOB_TIMEOUT_S, MAM_HEARTBEAT_SEC, MAM_HEARTBEAT_MISSES,
MAM_ACK_TIMEOUT_S (invalid env: warning + default) and the wrapper's
--timeout/--idle-timeout/--heartbeat/--heartbeat-misses/--ack-timeout
(invalid: rc 1); the runner's job_budget, --job-timeout, contract_args.
- minimum 0 (0 = check once): MAM_INJECT_ACK_GRACE_S,
delegate_wait_started's ack_s, SKS_DIALOG_TIMEOUT, SKS_BUSY_TIMEOUT,
SKS_DELIVERY_GRACE_S.
- tests/test_issue26_ints.py: INT_KNOBS is the one table of minimums; a
static guard keeps env defaults out of arithmetic and checks each
normalised knob against it.

- mam_herdr: for name lookups (agent / has-session / kill-session) a
HERDR_WORKSPACE_ID that is the caller pane's own workspace (it matches
the HERDR_PANE_ID prefix) is dropped. Live agent names are unique per
server (herdr --skill), so this cannot address a same-named agent of
another workspace; an id the caller chose, or one set outside a pane,
still scopes (H-18/H-21/H-23). The generated shim is unchanged (S11).
- wrapper: a preflight that cannot see the target closes the job
cancelled with detail target_not_found instead of session_busy; the
loop's sub-job table counts it as NOT-DISPATCHED.
- tests: T10-T12 with the measured pane env (same-server socket, caller
w6, target w2); T8 follows the sub-job-armed guard.

The two remaining exec points that carried a prompt as one argv string
(capped at 131,072 bytes):
- run_loop.sh (MAM_LOOP_PY=0): delegate_job_safe, which all eleven shell
delegations go through, turns `--prompt <text>` into `--prompt-file` under
the control root's .mam/ and removes the file once the wrapper returns. Its
failure lines go to stderr: callers capture stdout, and under set -e a
failed submit ends the loop at that line with the wrapper's code, so the
cause was being swallowed.
- lib.sh delegate_submit_job and its legacy twin (create_session's onboarding
and --submit-job): the prompt is written under .mam/ and handed on as
--prompt-file; lib_py.delegation.cli submit accepts --prompt-file and
forwards it to the registry. --prompt keeps working everywhere.
S6/S6b push a 140,000-byte prompt through the CLI and both helpers; S7 runs
the real run_loop.sh with a 140,000-byte plan and a 150,000-byte diff; S7b
fixes a nonzero exit when the implementation or compliance job cannot be
registered. All six fail on 14d11bf.

Two probes from the merge-side codex review (its report was lost to an API
outage; the probes and their results were recovered from its transcript):
- create_session.sh and resume_session.sh set AUTO_TRUST=1 and then
exported MAM_AUTO_TRUST from it, so the documented MAM_AUTO_TRUST=0
without a flag reached handle_startup_dialogs as 1: the operator had
turned automatic trust off and it stayed on. Now AUTO_TRUST defaults to
the environment value and an explicit --auto-trust/--no-auto-trust wins.
- _mam_dialog_pick exited on the first dialog inside its resend cooldown
instead of looking further down the screen, so a skipped (--no-auto-trust)
or just-answered trust prompt hid the codex update notice below it, which
the docs say is always answered. It continues to the next dialog now; S5
and S5b (one send per cooldown, one retry after it) still hold.
Regressions: S6c, S5f (startup path), R3b and C3 (resume/create, env only,
flag over env). Each fails without the fix. The create skill doc names the
environment form and its precedence.

Review round 4 (planner-reviewer-claude-01 B-1, planner-reviewer-codex-01
P2, reached independently): dispatch_verified is a boolean. It says the
subscriber's token check ran when the record was written, but names no
dispatch, the token being masked by the audit redactor and attempt_id not
written. events.ndjson is appended to across a job's attempts, so a started
verified under attempt 1 satisfied every later attempt's wait - the very
misattribution R1 forbids, alive on the remote path while the local path
(data.dispatch_token in events.log) was already immune. codex reproduced it
with the real signed producer, the real _Watcher, the real audit writer and
the real operator re-dispatch; both waits answered 0 where 1 was due, even
when attempt 2's subscriber had correctly dropped attempt 1's replayed packet.
The subscriber now writes dispatch_fingerprint = SHA-256 of the token it
verified, and attempt_id for readers. With a token demanded, the predicate
accepts an audit record only if it is dispatch_verified AND its fingerprint
equals SHA-256 of that token; a record with no fingerprint - written before
the field existed - names nothing and is rejected on that path. Without a
token, any received started counts, as before.
Fingerprint over attempt_id as the identity, weighing the two proposals: the
local path already compares the token, so hashing it keeps one identity axis
for both sources; the token is a uuid4 nonce (registry.py:141), 128 bits, so
its SHA-256 is not recoverable and it is a CAS fence rather than the HMAC
secret in the first place; and attempt_id cannot tell apart a token
re-minted within one attempt, where the token can. attempt_id is recorded
because it is cheap and readable, not relied on.
W7 pins codex's five cases end to end - current dispatch accepted, an old
attempt's record rejected after a real re-dispatch, still rejected when the
stale packet is replayed and dropped, the new dispatch's own started
accepted, a bad HMAC never recorded - with create's wait and the wrapper's
wait required to agree on each. W8 pins the fail-closed legacy record and
the untokened compatibility path. W5 gains the no-fingerprint and
other-dispatch cases; W6 checks the real _Watcher writes the fingerprint and
never the token. S7e's status reset had no reason left and is gone. codex's
own reproduction file, unmodified, passes 5/5 against this tree.

Review round 3 (planner-reviewer-codex-01, reviewer-opencode-01): R1 blocking,
R2 and the "ONE builder" wording non-blocking. All three reproduced; none
rebutted.
R1. _wait_started still returned 0 as soon as the record left `pending`,
ahead of the shared predicate, so `error`, `cancelled` and another dispatch's
`running` all acknowledged an injection that create's delegate_wait_started
rejects - the two contracts the ack-finding brief said must not diverge. Both
reviewers reproduced it with the real producer and no record manipulation;
my S7n had hidden it by resetting the record to `pending`.
The bypass and the console grep are gone. The wrapper's evidence is now
delegate_started_recorded alone, the same call create makes. For a remote
agent - no shared disk, so no line in events.log - the predicate reads the
subscriber's audit record of the `started` it received. That record is
attributable by construction: the subscriber verifies the HMAC and drops any
event whose data.dispatch_token differs from the job's expected token before
it writes anything. The token itself cannot go into the record (the audit
redactor masks token-named keys), so the subscriber now stamps a boolean
dispatch_verified, and with a token demanded only a verified record counts;
an untokened legacy record fails closed. The registry status is never
evidence; a terminal job is preserved by the terminal logic, not turned into
an acknowledgement.
Tests: W1/W2/W3 are the reviewers' three negatives and the positive, real
producer, record left exactly as it produced it; W4 runs create's wait and
the wrapper's wait side by side on all four and requires the same answer;
W5 pins the remote route (a verified record counts, an unverified or
non-started one does not); W6 drives the real _Watcher and shows it stamps
the flag on a matching started and records nothing for a mismatch; S7n no
longer resets the record. test_issue14's "registry ack over unconfirmed
inject" produced its ack with a bare status flip - the very bypass - and now
produces it the way an agent does, publish_event with the dispatch token;
its scenario and every other assertion are unchanged. test_issue18's remote
e2e accepted the status messages and now expects the shared one.
R2. _code_only blanked a docstring's whole line range, so code sharing that
line - `"""doc"""; call()` - vanished from the scan. It now removes only the
docstring node from the AST and unparses the rest (comments drop out with
it, code strings stay); test_g9b pins the four same-line shapes.
The builder comment claimed one builder for create and the wrapper; the
wrapper keeps _pub_cmd and S7l pins the two equal argument-for-argument. The
comment now says that.

Trial 2 of this branch: cross-server delivery was restored (f7cee00), the
agent completed its onboarding and published started and completed - and
create_session still waited 180 s, called the onboarding unconfirmed, and
tried to write `error` over the completed job (refused by the registry).
delegate_wait_started required the started line to carry data.dispatch_token
(review R1: a stale attempt's started must not vouch for this one). But
publish_event only writes that field when its command line carries
--expect-dispatch-token, and create_session's hand-rolled onboarding command
never did - the wrapper's _pub_cmd does, which is why every wrapper-dispatched
agent's started has the token and no create_session onboarding ever could.
Five reviewers missed it because the fixture wrote the token into the started
line by hand: a fake producer that differs from the real one.
Fix, along the wrapper's existing mechanism rather than a new one:
* delegate_publish_cmd (lib.sh) builds the publish command for an agent, with
--expect-dispatch-token and --attempt-id, and create_session uses it. The
agent's own started now names the dispatch, and publish_event's CAS check
refuses a stale dispatch's event at the source. S7l pins the builder
argument-for-argument against the wrapper's _pub_cmd.
* delegate_started_recorded (lib.sh) is the one definition of "this
dispatch's started is on disk" - JSON-parsed, token-matched when a token is
given - used by delegate_wait_started and by the wrapper's _wait_started in
place of its regex. The wrapper keeps its status and subscriber routes
(remote agents); the shared part is the evidence contract.
* An already-terminal job is left alone when the wait expires (req. 4): no
error over a completed/error/cancelled record.
The fixture now registers the record through registry.py and publishes
started through the real publish_event.py; the only synthetic line left (S7h)
exists to pin key-order independence and says so. S7i pins the trial-2 defect
as the negative it is (old command shape -> started without token -> not
acknowledged); S7j runs the builder's command through the real producer and
is acknowledged on the first probe; S7n shows the wrapper accepting the same
real line and rejecting a stale token; S7m pins no-write-over-terminal. S7f
moves from "publish error" to "leave the terminal job alone", per req. 4.
Option B (verify data.hmac_sig with the job's auth_token, plus record-token
still equal) was weighed and not taken: verify_hmac returns True with no
auth_token - PoC mode, which the trial and every sandbox run in - so it proves
nothing there; in production hmac_sig authenticates the signer but does not
identify the dispatch, so R1 would rest on a current-state check that a stale
line plus an unrotated token passes; and it would diverge from the wrapper
unless the wrapper changed too. Token exposure is not new: every wrapper-
dispatched instruction already carries the dispatch token in the pane, and it
is a per-dispatch CAS nonce, not the HMAC secret.

The live trial of this branch found the cross-server verdict inert on this
host: _herdr_call_is_cross_server read the caller's server from HERDR_SESSION,
and herdr 0.8.2 does not export that variable to a pane of the default server
- the orchestrator's usual home, and exactly the pane the #23 leak comes from.
Every call was judged "not crossing", the three ids were never dropped, and
all four trial onboardings ended "no started within 180s". My own pane sits in
a named server and does carry HERDR_SESSION, which is how the assumption got
past me.
HERDR_SOCKET_PATH is exported to every pane and its layout names the server:
.../.config/herdr/herdr.sock is the default server and
.../.config/herdr/sessions/<name>/herdr.sock a named one - the convention
`herdr session list --json` reports and the shim already uses to find a named
server's socket. _herdr_caller_server prefers HERDR_SESSION when a herdr does
export it, otherwise reads the socket's shape (suffix-matched, not $HOME-
anchored), and yields "" for anything unrecognised so an exported scope is
respected rather than guessed away. The rest of the rule is unchanged from
3bcaa39: a `default` or empty target is the ambient server, no caller server
means no pane, caller == target is the same server. watcher.caller_server
applies the same rule for the loop's own herdr calls.
Reproduced against the live server in the trial's exact env: 10a678c answers
"NOT crossing / has-session NOT FOUND"; this commit answers "caller server
default / crossing / FOUND". S1c pins that env end to end with the recorder
asserting the ids never reach herdr; S1d-S1h pin the verdict, the named-socket
same-server and cross-server cases, HERDR_SESSION precedence, and the
unrecognised layout. The 3bcaa39 tests are unchanged and still pass.

Review round 1 (planner-reviewer-claude-01, reviewer-agy-01,
planner-reviewer-codex-01): one blocking defect and two P2s, all confirmed.
B-1. handle_startup_dialogs took its ready tokens only from the environment,
which wait_for_tui_ready fills when it evaluates the adapter facts. Called on
its own - as resume_session.sh calls it, with no readiness wait before it -
it had no tokens, its early-return branch could never fire, and every resume
of every agent idled through the full 20 s timeout (base: 0.03 s). rc was 0
throughout, so nothing failed; the resume tests just took ~30 s each.
_mam_load_dialog_facts now also takes MAM_STRONG_READY_TOKENS / MAM_READY_TOKENS
from the facts, but only when the caller has not set them, so a caller-set
value (wait_for_tui_ready's own, or a test steering readiness) is never
clobbered - the concern that made it take a single fact in the first place.
S5d pins one-iteration return on a ready first frame for five adapters with
no environment; S5e pins that caller tokens survive; R4 gets a wall-clock cap
so a timeout-idle can no longer pass as success. The old
_MAM_READY_TOKENS_CLAUDE fallback was left defined but unread - removed.
R1 / N-2. delegate_wait_started treated any status past `pending` as the
agent's acknowledgement. codex reproduced three false positives: `error` and
`cancelled` records with no started line, and a `running` record from another
dispatch. The status branch is gone; the evidence is a started line carrying
this dispatch's token, which the local publisher writes before it syncs the
status, so nothing that really started is missed (S7c re-pinned on the line
with running/completed/error statuses; S7f/S7g pin the three negatives).
N-4, taken with it: the events.log line is parsed as JSON rather than pattern-
matched. publish_event nests dispatch_token under `data`, and the old regex
only matched because of key order (S7h, real line shape and a reordered one).
R2 / N-1. Two tests hardcoded <repo>/.venv/bin/python and failed with
FileNotFoundError in every review worktree. sys.executable.

Plan commits 3 and 4 landed together: both rewrite the same region of
create_session.sh and share one test file, and splitting them afterwards would
have meant hunk-level surgery on already-verified code.
Delivery verdict (item 3). create_session --onboard called a healthy agent a
failure three seconds after registering the job: inject_instructions ->
send_keys_safe returns rc 4 when `agent prompt --wait --until working` fails
and the pane is still not working two seconds later, which is exactly where a
TUI that is still starting up lands. It never got the ISSUE-18 confirmation the
delegate-job wrapper has. rc 4 is a warning now and the agent's own `started`
decides, within the job's own ack timeout; rc 1/2/3 stay hard failures, since
they say the pane never quiesced, a dialog was blocking, or the text never
appeared, and no later `started` repairs those.
The self-published `started` had to go first. create_session published it on
the agent's behalf right after injection, so the registry showed a started job
whether or not the agent ever saw the prompt - with that line in place, no
started-based verdict can mean anything.
delegate_wait_started is lib.sh's counterpart to the wrapper's _wait_started
(plan item D10-b). The wrapper's own `submit` was the first choice, but it
blocks until the job reaches a terminal state, and create_session must return
as soon as delivery is confirmed; the on-disk evidence it reads - registry
status past `pending`, or a started line carrying this dispatch token - is
written by publish_event before its wire publish, so no broker is involved.
Rollback integrity (item 4). The trap ran `_herdr kill-session -t
"$SESSION_NAME" 2>/dev/null || true`, so a kill that closed nothing still
printed "rolling back" while the session kept running, and the row stayed
`running` pointing at the job the same rollback had just failed (#23 symptom
5). With item 1 in place this check is finally trustworthy: the kill used to
fail because the caller's workspace id hid the pane.
The trap now reads the kill's rc, confirms with has-session, closes the
onboarding job as `cancelled` (a terminal transition the registry knows, and
the truthful one - the job was never dispatched), and marks the row. A session
still alive exits 43 with the manual cleanup command, distinct from 42 (TUI
never ready).
The row keeps a schema-valid status rather than the plan's `error`, which
atomic_yaml.py rejects: `terminated` once the session is really gone, and
`running` when the kill failed, because it is still running. What makes that
case legible is the note, the cleared delegate_job_id and exit 43 - not a
status claiming the opposite of the truth. The row is never deleted; a deleted
row takes the evidence with it.

handle_startup_dialogs was a claude-only string ladder called only when
AGENT=claude, and wait_for_tui_ready does not treat a dialog screen as ready.
So agy, grok and codex sat on their directory-trust prompt for the full
readiness timeout, the session was recorded as tui-ready-timeout, and
onboarding injection was disabled (create_session.sh:313-314) - a human had to
accept each dialog by hand.
The signatures and accept keys move to the adapters as `startup_dialogs`
(pattern, keys, kind), published through the existing `facts` eval contract as
MAM_STARTUP_DIALOGS. claude's ladder moves over verbatim; agy takes Enter, grok
y, codex Enter, and codex's update notice takes 2 (Skip), which blocks a start
just as hard while changing nothing. kind is `trust` or `notice`:
--no-auto-trust leaves trust dialogs to a human and still answers notices,
since trusting a directory makes codex load its project-local config, hooks and
exec policy.
Re-sending is gated by time (MAM_DIALOG_RESEND_S, default 5s), not by frames.
#24's comment reports that `--source visible` keeps showing an accepted dialog
for a while, and _pane_capture hardcodes that source, so "still on screen" is
not evidence the keys were missed; acceptance is judged by the ready tokens
alone.
Two existing tests asserted the old shape and are updated, not weakened:
b19's "Escape branch stays" now looks for it in claude's adapter, and c1b's
"Enter once per iteration" becomes "never twice for one frame", which the
cooldown satisfies strictly more tightly.

A MAM script often runs inside one herdr server's pane (the orchestrator's)
while targeting another (the isolated MAM server). The pane exports
HERDR_WORKSPACE_ID, HERDR_PANE_ID and HERDR_TAB_ID, and those ids only mean
something on the server that issued them. They reached the scope filters as a
foreign workspace, whose fail-closed miss (ISSUE-3 / F-2b) reports a live
session as absent: has-session, kill-session, agent prompt and the delegate-job
preflight all answered "no such session". Reproduced on Linux and macOS in the
#23 comments, worked around until now with `env -u` at every call site.
mam_herdr drops the three ids for a call aimed at a named server other than the
caller's own. Scope then falls back to .mam/herdr_workspace_id and finally to
server-global, which is what _herdr_ws_scope already does. `default` is not a
crossing: it is the sentinel for "pass no session flag", so herdr answers on
the ambient server, which for a caller in a pane is that caller's own. A caller
outside any pane keeps an exported scope, so H-18/H-21/H-23 keep their meaning.
The fix lives in mam_herdr, not in the shim heredoc: that heredoc is
materialised into $WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/shim/herdr, one file shared by every
checkout bound to a control plane and rewritten on every herdr call, so editing
it would put unreviewed code in the control root and let two checkouts
overwrite each other. S11 fixes that invariant.
lib_py/loop/watcher.py builds its own herdr argv and is the one path that does
not go through mam_herdr, so it applies the same rule via scoped_env.

Review 9a1adb46 (planner-reviewer-codex-01):
- R1 [P1] lib.sh new-session: a forwarded binding reached the agent as
arguments. With env flags the idle-pane branch prefixed `env K=V ...` to
the command that `herdr agent start ... --kind <agent> -- <args>` passes to
the agent executable. An idle pane is now reused only when no environment
has to be set; otherwise the pane is created by pane split / workspace
create, which take --env. The dead `env` prefix code is removed (its
send-text fallback would have typed the same line).
- R2 [P2] runner: a relative MAM_JOBS_DIR is resolved once against the
control root, the way the wrapper (cwd=workspace_root) reads it, and that
absolute dir is used for delegation, wait, report lookup and cleanup.
- R3 [P2] stop: the row's control_plane.delegate_job_logs_dir is restored
(exported unless the caller set DELEGATE_JOB_LOGS_DIR), so the
cancellation history lands in the row's audit-log root.
Tests: T3-1 and T3-3 now assert that the binding arrives as --env on the
pane-creation calls and that no env/K=V token follows `--` in agent start
(fresh and reused pane); T3-4c (audit root on stop) and T2-15 (relative
MAM_JOBS_DIR) are new. The design doc's compatibility table and a create
comment no longer describe the removed idle-pane env path.

A session row now records the control plane it belongs to, and the pane
gets it explicitly instead of relying on env inheritance.
- lib_py/control_plane.py (+ thin lib.sh wrappers mam_control_plane_json /
mam_control_plane_prefix): the binding is WORKSPACE_ROOT,
AGENT_SESSIONS_YAML, MAM_JOBS_DIR, DELEGATE_JOB_LOGS_DIR as absolute paths.
- create: the binding is always persisted on the row (`control_plane`) and
forwarded to the pane only when it differs from what --workspace alone
implies, as leading K=V tokens that lib.sh's new-session already turns into
--env (fresh pane) or `env K=V` (reused idle pane). pane.cmd_full and
start_command stay unprefixed. A binding with whitespace that would have to
be forwarded is refused with exit 2 (lib.sh splits the flags unquoted); the
~/.local/bin wrapper path records the binding but warns it is not forwarded.
- resume: the row's binding wins over the caller's env (a difference is
reported on stderr) and is forwarded again; a legacy row without one uses
the caller's binding and update_yaml_resumed.sh records it.
- stop: registry order MAM_JOBS_DIR > the row's mam_jobs_dir >
$WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/jobs > .mam/jobs, exported for delegate_publish_event.
- status: both get_job_status copies look in MAM_JOBS_DIR, the row's
registry and the matching audit logs before the old candidates.
- reconcile: MAM_JOBS_DIR wins in the subscribe heredoc and is passed in.
Tests T3-0..T3-8 (mock herdr: forwarding is verified at the herdr-call level
only; real pane env propagation is left to item 7). T3-7 is a static guard.

Contract (no new event types): heartbeat every N s (automatic timer),
unresponsive after K x N s without an event, `started` within T s of the
injection, retained per-job state, and a remote transport.
- registry: heartbeat_sec / heartbeat_misses / ack_timeout_sec / transport
fields; idle_timeout_sec derives K x N unless explicit (defaults 30/4/60
keep the historical 120 s idle window).
- heartbeat.py + publish_event --heartbeat N: detached fixed-cadence timer
publishing signed `progress` heartbeats (threaded wire publish, local
record first); stopped by the terminal event via pidfile, by re-dispatch
and by lifetime. Terminal events refuse --heartbeat.
- publish_event: retained `<prefix>/state` (status, last_event, seq, HMAC)
sent on the same connection after every event (--no-state to skip);
publisher.publish_raw takes extra messages.
- job_subscriber: subscribes the state topic, recovers terminal status from
retained state, resets idle on any accepted message, records seq_gap and
reconnected in the audit log, idle budget before the first event is
T + K x N (--ack-timeout), --remote mirrors started/terminal events into
the registry through the transition boundary.
- lib.sh send_keys_safe: an accepted-but-unconfirmed submission is confirmed
by agent_status working or the job's own `started` (_sks_job_started);
pane change and busy token are no longer delivery signals.
- wrapper: --heartbeat/--heartbeat-misses/--ack-timeout (MAM_* env),
injected start command arms the timer, brief states the contract,
_wait_started (registry / events.log / subscriber log, bounded by T and
the wall clock) replaces the 10 s inject grace, R1 grace uses only the
on-disk event age (herdr/pane logged once as a diagnostic),
remote:<name> sessions skip preflight/idle/pane and dispatch over the
broker (remote_dispatch).
- remote.py (+ scripts shim): signed retained dispatch (MAM_DISPATCH_SECRET)
and a runner that mirrors the job into its own registry with the
orchestrator's identity, publishes started --heartbeat, runs --exec and
publishes the terminal event.
- loop runner: passes MAM_HEARTBEAT_SEC / MAM_HEARTBEAT_MISSES /
MAM_ACK_TIMEOUT_S through; YAML rows with transport: remote delegate as
remote:<name>.
- docs: MESSAGING.md 2.5 contract + remote transport, delegate-job SKILL.md,
registry.md, loop SKILL.md.
- tests: tests/test_issue18_liveness_contract.py (16); issue 14 pane-signal
tests flipped to started-based; issue 6 working-agent tests acknowledge
with started; CLI snapshot/help captures refreshed.

Review round 1 (claude PASS, agy PASS) recommendations:
- reconcile.sh: `_sub_stop` falls back to `$!` for the window before
`_sub_pid=$!` (R-1); lock identity compared as (st_dev, st_ino).
- lib.sh legacy start_watchdog prints nothing when opted out and no daemon
runs, byte-identical to the python body.
- conftest/test: `_is_subscriber_daemon_argv` selects only
`bash|sh <root>/.../reconcile.sh --subscribe`, never a brief-carrying
wrapper that quotes the words or a prefix-colliding sibling root (R-2);
one new unit test for the selector.
- monitor SKILL.md / VERSIONS.md: the polling fallback checks the lock
file's presence only and does not exclude a second daemon; measurement
wording uses the argv-shape criterion instead of raw pgrep.

create_session.sh detaches `reconcile.sh --subscribe --idle-timeout 0` per
workspace; test sandboxes never reaped it and the daemon neither noticed its
workspace vanish nor honoured SIGTERM (bash deferred the signal behind the
foreground python child). 202 orphans were found holding public-broker
wildcard subscriptions for deleted pytest tmpdirs.
- daemon.py / lib.sh: MAM_NO_SUBSCRIBER_DAEMON=1 (literal) skips the spawn but
still reports a running daemon; cli prints a stderr note, stdout stays empty.
- reconcile.sh: python subscriber runs as a waited background child with a
TERM/INT trap (exit 143); the MQTT loop exits when the workspace dir is gone
or .mam/monitor.lock is no longer the held inode; SIGTERM/SIGINT handled via
the stop event so loop_stop/disconnect run; the polling fallback checks the
same and sleeps in a waited child.
- conftest: sandbox default MAM_NO_SUBSCRIBER_DAEMON=1, per-sandbox reaper
finalizer, session-scope leak guard over the pytest basetemp.
- tests: 11 lifecycle tests (tests/test_issue19_subscriber_daemon_lifecycle.py);
phase-1 watchdog/daemon characterization tests opt back in.
- docs: monitor SKILL.md lifecycle contract + pitfalls, create SKILL.md note.

Issue #12 - MQTT_PASSWORD was copied into every job record, which any
sub-agent can read. BrokerConfig.to_registry_block no longer persists it;
broker_config_from_job layers the password back from the environment
(.mam.env) at connect time, so publish_event still connects from the record.
_atomic_write_record scrubs broker.password from any record it writes, and
`registry.py scrub-secrets [--dry-run]` migrates an existing registry.
auth_token/dispatch_token stay: the agent's own publish_event needs them.
Issue #8 - update.sh restored the pre-update asset_hashes.txt and version.txt
over the installer's fresh ones, so version.txt named the previous commit and
remove.sh backed up every pristine updated file as "locally modified". The
success path now keeps the installer's stamps and only merges install_state
keys the re-install did not write (gitignore_created); the failure path
still restores everything verbatim.
Issue #7 - the shim's new-session took the first same-cwd pane, always found
the full first workspace, judged it overflow and opened another workspace per
agent (4 + 1 + 1). It now walks every same-cwd workspace in pane order and
takes the first with an idle pane or room in its 2xK grid; a workspace is
created only when all are full (4 + 2).
Tests: test_issue7_workspace_packing.py (3; the mock herdr gains an opt-in
per-workspace 2x2 geometry), test_issue8_update_state.py (1, real
install+update cycle), test_issue12_registry_secrets.py (4); registry CLI
snapshot and help capture refreshed for the intentional scrub-secrets
subcommand; registry.md documents the broker block.

Issue #10 - agy purge_artifacts left resumable pieces behind: it now also
removes the SQLite sidecars (-wal/-shm/-journal), the title annotation and
the presence lock (the lock only once no live process references the
conversation), and residual_artifacts() reports anything under
~/.gemini/antigravity-cli still carrying the uuid.
Issue #13 - the orchestrator has no herdr_sessions row, so its conversation
could not be purged by any skill. `lib_py.agents purge <agent|auto> <uuid>`
resolves the adapter from what is on disk (orchestrator_uuids stores bare
uuids), refuses while a live process names the uuid (conversation_in_use:
process list minus the caller's own lineage, plus lsof), and prints what it
purged. `orc_onboard.sh --remove <uuid> --purge-conversation --yes [--agent]`
runs it before the registry update so a refusal changes nothing (exit 4
without --yes, 5 while in use).
Issue #11 - "Successfully removeed": conjugate add/remove explicitly.
Issue #15 - the job registry and audit log followed the caller's cwd, so the
pytest suite (create_session.sh with its default onboarding job, run from the
repo root) had left 593 test records in the real .mam/jobs. Defaults now
resolve MAM_JOBS_DIR / DELEGATE_JOB_LOGS_DIR, then $WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/...,
then the cwd (mqtt_common.default_registry_dir / get_logs_dir; registry.py,
publish_event.py, service.py, create_session.sh, stop_session.sh); the
sandbox fixture pins both. The tier suites that used to leak now leave the
real registry untouched (881 records before and after).
Tests: test_issue10_13_purge.py (13), test_issue15_registry_isolation.py (7);
T-O13 pins the corrected message; the R1 helper test and B-9 logs-dir test
now assert the workspace-anchored contract; publish_event snapshot updated.

Round-2 review of d5a191c (planner-reviewer-claude-01, planner-reviewer-codex-01).
- delegate wrapper: the R1 idle grace and the broker_unavailable re-check
counted only their sleeps against TIMEOUT, so python/herdr probe time plus
fresh disk heartbeats let a job run far past --timeout (55 s for a 20 s
budget in the new test). Both loops now end at START_TIME + TIMEOUT read
off the clock on every pass; heartbeats extend only the idle window, and
the herdr probe is cut off at the deadline (_within_deadline)
- document the window policy d5a191c actually implements: an agent with no
evidence is closed ~2 x IDLE_TIMEOUT after its last wire event (Issue #6
promised IDLE_TIMEOUT + 5 s) and heartbeats may be ~2 x IDLE_TIMEOUT apart;
correct the claim that publish_event records a heartbeat on disk before
the wire publish - it records right after the publish attempt
- shim ls: every failed `agent list` other than a structured
server_not_running now exits nonzero with a "state unknown" diagnostic
instead of reaching the list parser, where an error document on stdout
read as an empty list and let drift A terminate live rows
- tests: stdout variants for down and unrelated errors, reconcile keeping
herdr_confirmed False on an unrelated failure, and a wall-clock upper bound
under continuous heartbeats and slow probes; the three new checks fail on
d5a191c
- VERSIONS.md v4.4.2: items 3 and 6 and the test count (19)

The ls translation searched stderr and the whole stdout for the substring
server_not_running, so a successful `agent list` that merely carried the text
(an agent named server_not_running-codex, or metadata) made the shim report
"no server running". reconcile.sh reads that as a confirmed-empty server, and
drift A would then mark every live row on it terminated (codex review of
0918917).
- keep the RPC exit code and translate only a failed call whose error
envelope (the whole stream or any line of it) has
error.code == "server_not_running"; every other failure keeps the unknown
path (nonzero exit, herdr_confirmed False) as before
- tests: the real herdr 0.9 envelope, a successful list carrying the
substring in a name and in metadata, other failures staying unknown, and
reconcile keeping both live rows with no drift A; the new cases fail on
0918917

grace as "registry advanced" instead of attributing it to the agent

- Drop per-session agent runtime markers (CLAUDECODE, CLAUDE_CODE_CHILD_SESSION,
CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID, Claude Code messaging/bridge/pid markers, and the
agy/hermes/grok/opencode session ids) from the environment lib.sh's shim hands
to a bootstrapped `herdr --session <name> server`; user configuration such as
CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR still inherits
- Add MAM_NO_AUTOSTART=1 so query-only callers never bootstrap a server as a side
effect; status.sh and reconcile.sh export it, and the shim's `ls` reports a down
server as "no server running" so reconcile keeps herdr_confirmed instead of
freezing drift detection for every server
- send_keys_safe: treat `timeout` / `agent_prompt_stalled` from `agent prompt
--wait` as an accepted submission and confirm delivery for SKS_DELIVERY_GRACE_S
(default 15 s) via agent_status working, a busy token the pane did not show
before, or the pane moving on from its pre-submit snapshot; no signal at all
still fails closed (rc 4). Codex under herdr 0.9.0 never reports `working`, so
every delivered prompt was closed as agent_blocked and its later
started/completed events refused
- delegate wrapper: before closing an unconfirmed inject as agent_blocked, honour
the registry's own acknowledgement for MAM_INJECT_ACK_GRACE_S (default 10 s)
- Switch T1-7's failure trigger to transport_error (timeout now means accepted);
add test_issue9_server_env.py (5 cases) and test_issue14_delivery_ack.py (7)

Issue #5 (Python core migration, CAS state transitions, shadow watcher,
auto-completion gate, eager-import immutable runtime, B-13 freeze removal)
is complete and merged to main. This stamps the release.
SemVer: MINOR, not MAJOR. The change is large but breaks nothing. Across the
whole Issue #5 range there are zero file deletions and zero renames, the event
wire schema stays at SCHEMA_VERSION 1, all four literal script paths survive as
compatibility shims, the 968-line legacy shell loop is still in run_loop.sh,
and every default change reverts through a single environment variable
(MAM_DELEGATION_PY / MAM_ENGINE_CAS / MAM_LOOP_PY / MAM_LOOP_FREEZE). The
riskiest new feature, auto-completion, ships default-off. No operator has
anything to migrate, which is the decisive reason not to call it 5.0.0. The
reasoning is recorded in the VERSIONS.md release notes, not just here.
Close a gap in the lockstep guard. lib.sh exports MAM_VERSION and eager_load()
refuses to start the loop when it disagrees with FRAMEWORK_VERSION, so eager.py
is a load-bearing fourth leg — but test_version_consistency.py only checked
three, and the sole check on eager.py was a hardcoded literal in the phase 4
test that a release bump has to edit anyway. The lockstep test now covers
eager.py, a new test pins the fail-closed gate itself, and the phase 4 test no
longer carries a version literal.
Fix a latent test-isolation defect the bump exposed. The first full run failed
four tests with "MAM_VERSION mismatch: expected 4.4.0, got 4.3.0 in
environment" — 4.3.0 was not in the tree, it was inherited from the shell that
launched pytest and had sourced the pre-bump lib.sh. Those tests were measuring
the runner's shell rather than the tree under test, and only passed until now
because the two values always happened to agree. A session-scoped fixture drops
the ambient value. Production is unaffected: run_loop.sh:17 sources lib.sh
before anything else and lib.sh re-exports MAM_VERSION unconditionally, so a
stale inherited value is always overwritten before Python starts.
Full suite: 750 passed in 912.50s, 0 failed, 0 skipped.

Three reviewers examined fc0bd96..8def235. Codex and Claude each reproduced a
defect; all three findings were re-verified here before being accepted, and none
were rebutted.
R1 (codex) — the shell helpers ran `python -m lib_py.delegation.cli`. For -m,
sys.path[0] is the working directory, which therefore beats PYTHONPATH: with cwd
inside a tree containing lib_py, the live package won even with the frozen path
listed first. The documented B-13 guarantee for this path did not hold.
Reproduced, then replaced with an explicit bootstrap that inserts SKILL_DIR
itself. cwd is left alone, because the registry and audit-log paths are relative
to it. The file-based shim path was never affected.
R2 (codex) — the persistent connection was reused on host and port alone. Two
jobs sharing an endpoint but carrying different credentials or TLS settings
silently published over the first connection. Reproduced (the client factory ran
once, under the first account, with TLS off). The guard now compares an
immutable snapshot of the whole connection identity and names only the differing
field, never its value.
F-1 (claude) — paho queues a publish issued while disconnected and raises
RuntimeError from wait_for_publish. RuntimeError is deliberately outside the
retry tuple, so the one state a persistent connection exists to survive, the gap
between a drop and paho's reconnect, failed on the first attempt. Confirmed
against paho 2.1.0. That single condition is now translated into a retryable
error; the tuple is unchanged, so genuine programming errors are still not
retried.
Two fixtures were hiding these: FakeInfo had no rc and never raised. It now
mirrors paho's contract, which is what makes the new tests meaningful.
Also folds in the duplication both Claude (O-1) and I had flagged: the CLI path
kept its own copy of connect-publish-disconnect plus its own timeout constants.
_publish_once now delegates to OneShotPublisher.publish_raw, so a transport fix
lands once. Having two copies is exactly why these bugs existed in one of them.
Documentation corrected rather than defended: the benchmark's rationale for
keeping three forks was imprecise (the || true already guarantees rc 0; the
lookup buys quietness and legacy parity), SKILL.md no longer claims PYTHONPATH
decides the frozen path, and the daemon's directory creation is recorded as a
deliberate difference. Trailing whitespace inherited by the relocated file is
stripped, so the commit range is now clean too.
Verified: each regression fails against the pre-fix code and passes after
(R1 1, R2 4, F-1 1). 66 phase-1 tests pass.

Records the measured numbers and syncs every document that names the
delegation script paths, then bumps the framework to 4.3.0 in the three-way
lockstep (lib.sh, VERSIONS.md current + matrix, eight SKILL.md frontmatters).
phase1-benchmark.md carries both arms. The deterministic fake transport is what
CI asserts on: 50 publishes cost 50 connections one-shot and 1 persistent, p50
54.813ms -> 0.002ms. The real broker run is informational, since the PoC
default is a public broker: p50 1892.728ms -> 275.992ms, about 85% off.
It also corrects the plan's own estimate rather than repeating it. D8 predicted
the new shell path would drop from 3 forks to 2; the implementation is still 3,
because keeping the `_delegate_script publish_event.py` lookup is the only
thing that produces the "missing script tree does nothing" non-fatal contract
that C-02 pins. Saving that fork would change the contract, so it is deferred
to phase 4 rather than taken quietly.
SKILL.md gains the context table saying which tree wins where, so an operator
reading it knows a frozen loop runs frozen delegation code. The script paths in
every document remain correct and every quoted command still works verbatim.

Adds the python side of the delegation helpers and switches lib.sh over to it.
daemon.py port of start_watchdog. Same monitor path, same pgrep pattern, so
a daemon started by either implementation is found by the other;
same stderr wording and exit 1 when reconcile.sh is missing; same
"print the PID" contract, multiple pgrep matches included, since
the shell echoed them all and trimming would be a silent change.
start_new_session detaches it, and SIGHUP is ignored across the
exec so it outlives its parent exactly as nohup did.
cli.py thin router. submit/publish forward to the existing main() of the
module that already owned the behaviour, so exit codes, stdout
shape and side effects cannot drift between the shell path and
the script path. Only ensure-daemon carries logic of its own.
service.py DelegationService facade, with an optional persistent connection
for the phase 2a engine. CLI and shell always use one-shot.
lib.sh keeps the three legacy bodies verbatim as _*_legacy behind
MAM_DELEGATION_PY=0, which is the instant rollback switch. PYTHONPATH is passed
explicitly so `-m` resolves lib_py from the tree this lib.sh belongs to, which
is what makes a frozen loop run frozen delegation code. start_watchdog survives
as an alias for ensure_subscriber_daemon.
The wrapper and run_loop.sh are untouched; reconcile.sh gains only the
ensure_env_loaded line from the previous commit.
Verified: C-01..C-09 pass against both the legacy and the python bodies, the
daemon dedups and survives its parent, the cli reproduces the legacy failure
line exactly, and publish failure semantics (status synced, seq consumed,
audit records published=false) are identical through the shim and the cli.
tier1+tier2 109 passed; bash -n clean on all six shell files.
